Police: Driver-passenger dispute turns violent

JERSEY CITY (AP) — Authorities in northern New Jersey are searching for a driver who allegedly stabbed one of several passengers in his car because no one would tell him where they wanted to be dropped off.

The passengers said that they had been hanging with the driver at a club in Union City on Thursday night. He agreed to drive them all home early Friday, but eventually stopped in Jersey City and told them to get out of his vehicle.

One passenger, identified only as a 19-year-old man who had paid the driver $10 for the ride, refused to leave. Witnesses say the driver forcibly pulled him out and stabbed him in the back and thigh before driving off.
